Have Faith in God

"as it is written, I have made you the father of many nations -in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist." (Rom. 4:17)
Have you considered the faith of Abraham? God called him to leave his home and ancestors and travel to a place that he would tell him about when he got there? He did not have a Bible to consult or a pastor to talk with. He set out in faith. He had all that mattered, the Word from God.

Then as an old man when it seemed biologically impossible to have a child, he dared to believe the promise of God that He would have a son. He called himself father before there was reality. And then after Isaac had come and was likely a teenage boy, God asked the unthinkable, that he offer him as a sacrifice on the mountain. And yet Abraham knew God was a God who could raise the dead.

Do you dare to believe the Word God's Spirit has spoken to your heart? Can you rely on the scripture and the Holy Spirit no matter what the circumstances? Let me ask you the most important question. Not do you believe in God, but do you believe God? The old hymn calls us to "Have faith in God when your pathway in lonely, He sees and knows all the way you have trod." Will you depend on God today?
